Some of you out there may not have a clue what this means, but if your in the good o'l USA and would like to partially own a futbol club (fractions of a percent) then you can legal do so. Invest wisely my friends.

That's pretty awesome. I doubt that investing in a soccer club is a 'safe' investment, however. 05/07/2012 11:26

it all depends, what this means is that they need money. Were they are going to invest is the thing. If its buying new players and raising player salaries or is it raising staff salaries and having alot of party's. All in all though, they have a proven track record of making profit which is always a good thing. 05/07/2012 14:11

Most of the money will go to servicing the Debt that the stupid Glazer's put on United when buying a club.

The reason the club is being floated in New York is because if they do it on the London Stock Exchange, the Man Utd supporters club will immediately buy it all up - Something the Glazers really don't want.
